Are you teaching them to shoot with one finger on top of the arrow and two below, or are you teaching them good and proper with three fingers below?

Our book says you're supposed to teach beginners with the three fingers below method, but our instructor basically said why teach teach them that way and then show them another way later. He said either way works just fine for beginners (which I'm sure is who I'll be teaching), so since I like the one finger on top and two below method, I think I'll just stick with that.
